What is 99 Nights in the Forest?

99 Nights in the Forest is a survival and horror game on the Roblox platform, developed by Grandma’s Favourite Games. In it, players must survive for 99 nights in a dangerous forest (hostile creatures, cultists, supernatural beings), gathering resources, building shelters, and rescuing lost children while facing increasing threats.

The game also incorporates a code mechanic (“codes”) that allows players to receive gems (diamonds) for free, which helps unlock classes or purchase upgrades. As of this guide, the code system is quite new, and there are very few active entries.

Why use codes?

Codes are promotional incentives that the developer occasionally distributes to reward the community. By redeeming them, you typically receive free gems (diamonds), which can give you an advantage by unlocking classes, items, or talents without spending Robux.

Additionally, these codes often have limited validity, so it’s important to use them as soon as possible. Here’s how to stay up to date and which ones are currently active.

Active Codes List

At this moment, the community has verified the following active codes for 99 Nights in the Forest:

So far, that is the only confirmed active code. No other active entries appear in community sources and wikis at the time of writing. The fact that the code system is new suggests that more may appear later.

How to Redeem Codes Step by Step

To ensure you don’t get lost trying to redeem a code, follow this step-by-step guide:

1. Launch Roblox and open 99 Nights in the Forest.
2. Locate the main lobby of the game (before entering a game).
3. Click on the gem / diamond icon that appears in the lower left corner.
4. Within the gem menu, you should see a button that says “Codes” or “Códigos”.
5. Click on “Codes” and a text field labeled “Enter Code” / “Ingresar código” will appear.
6. Enter the code exactly as it appears (for example, `afterparty`).
7. Press “Submit” / “Enviar”. If the code is valid and active, you will receive the gems instantly.
8. If it doesn’t work, check for extra spaces, if it’s expired, or if you have already used it.
9. If there’s an error, restart the game or switch servers and try again.

Recommendation: enter the code right after it is released, as many codes have expiration dates or limited uses.

Reward Comparison: Estimated Values

Below is a comparative table that can help you visualize how many gems you get for each code, its utility, and usage recommendations:

Since there is only one confirmed active code to date, the comparison is limited. However, in future updates, you can add more rows with new codes and their respective rewards.

Tips to Not Lose Codes and Stay Updated

• Join the official game Discord server: often, developers announce codes there first.
• Follow the official Roblox group/account related to 99 Nights in the Forest.
• Check social media or official channels of the developers — some codes are released as part of events or patches.
• Visit community wikis, forums, or dedicated game blogs: they usually update quickly with new codes.
• When you see a new code, use it immediately — some expire within hours.
• Avoid generators or third-party sites that promise free codes — some may be scams or phishing.
• Take screenshots or keep a record of used codes to avoid duplicates.

Other Ways to Obtain Gems in 99 Nights in the Forest

Codes are not the only way to get gems in this game. Here are alternative methods that you can combine with codes to optimize your resources:

• Survive Nights and Progress

By advancing and surviving consecutive nights, the game rewards you with gems at certain milestones. For example, when you reach night 50 and night 99, you receive additional gems.

• Complete Game Badges

There are achievements (badges) that grant gems upon completion. These may include tasks like surviving under special conditions, improving the fire, performing secret actions, or completing challenges within the forest.

• Open Chests During Gameplay

During matches, some chests (Good, Iron, Ice, Gold, Legendary) may contain gems, although in small amounts. By exploring the map and frequently opening chests, you can accumulate extras.

• Special Events or “Update Party”

During updates or events, developers may activate special matches where administrators place gems around the map to reward participating players.

• Purchase with Robux (Premium Option)

If you are willing to invest, you can also buy gems with Robux in the currency shop in the lobby. However, for many players, the free methods are sufficient when combined well.

Common Errors and How to Fix Them

Sometimes players encounter issues when trying to redeem codes or claim rewards. Here are solutions to common errors:

The code doesn’t work / “Invalid code”

• Verify that you typed it exactly, with no extra spaces.
• Make sure the code is not expired.
• Restart the game or switch servers and try again.

You already redeemed it

Some codes are one-time use per account. If you used it before, you won’t be able to claim it again.

The gems don’t appear after redeeming

It could be a visual delay. Close and reopen the interface, or even leave the match and re-enter to see them.

You don’t see the “Codes” button in your game

This may be due to the code system not being deployed for all servers or regions yet. In that case, update the game, wait for a patch, or check if your lobby is the latest version.

Upcoming Codes and Predictions

Since the code system has been implemented recently, many predictions revolve around major events and updates. Here are some ideas of what to expect:

• When there’s a new major patch (for example, expansion of the “Volcano Part 3” biome or others), it’s likely they will release celebration codes.
• Codes for game anniversaries (months since launch) are usually common.
• Themed events (Halloween, festivals, special missions) may come with temporary codes.
• Balance updates or bug fixes may come with “compensations” via codes for the community.

My recommendation: whenever there’s an official announcement or a major update, check the developer’s social media and be among the first to redeem.

Quick Checklist for Using New Codes

As a useful summary, here’s a quick checklist for when you discover a new code:

• Read the code and copy it accurately (without spaces).
• Enter the game lobby as soon as possible.
• Go to the gem/diamond menu → Codes → enter the code → Submit.
• Confirm that the reward has been added.
• If it doesn’t appear, close the game or change servers and try again.
• Save a screenshot or note of the code for future reference.
• Check for expiration history to not let it slip by.
